Read a new short story on using science to make a myth a reality.
At first, the hardest part about living on the seastead was the smell.
Randall Squash was 22 and still going by the surname Catell when he had what he calls his “come to Bigfoot” moment.During childhood camping and hunting trips in eastern Washington state, his father would break out the Bigfoot stories, but they didn’t make that much of an impression on him. “Maybe something was out there; maybe it wasn’t. I was more focused on the animals in the woods that I could see,” he says.grade and earned his GED.
When Squash wasn’t researching Bigfoot, he was studying up on logging, particularly the industry’s changing technology and regulations. While at the logging camp, he began to hang around Knock on Wood managers, soaking up their knowledge, learning how to ingratiate himself to them. “He was a total suck-up,” a former colleague from those days says. “And when he wasn’t brown-nosing, he was talking about Bigfoot.
Dr. Shelley, who was then in grad school, only vaguely remembers hearing the story. “It just didn’t make any impression on me at all.”Even Squash seemed not to believe he’d ever give away the money; he wrote up the competition terms himself and published them on a website built by his cousin Stuart Catell, who was a high school senior. Anyone could visit the website and fill out a form about a supposed encounter.
A few weeks after the festivities, Catell and the Cascade State lab director—who pleaded not to be named in this story—called Squash again and told him, “We have a problem.” Catell and his teenage son were working around the clock, trying to answer new website submissions. The lab was buried in more scat and fur and hacked-off body parts than it could store, let alone test.
